Collection printed first in 1472, and repeatedly thereafter; known by its conventional title as "Scriptores rei rusticae."
Although they bear numbering "tomus I," "tomus II," and "tomus III," the three volumes have no collective title. Titles above are transcribed from the three title pages.
Published in 1537 without connecting volume numbering. Cf. Baudrier.
Vol. 1: 417, [27] p. (the last 3 p. blank); v. 2: 529, [19]? p.; v. 3: [184] p. (the last leaf blank). Baudrier calls for 23 (not 19) unnumbered pages at end of v. 2; his description of the 1537 ed. (p. 104) and the completeness of the text in the LC copy suggest he may be in error.
Includes indexes.
LC copy bound in 1 v. Binding error in index to v. 2; all pages, however, appear to be present.
